[Charania] Sources: The Indiana Pacers are moving toward rebuild, receptive to trade talks centered

Another example of a team that refuses to rebuild/tank. Trying their best to get into playoffs just to get eliminated

 

Indy has some nice players. They just don't have an alpha to build around. If they want to blow it up, there will be some contenders who are interested in their pieces.

 

I smell a GS fan in the air!

 

the sad reality of the NBA. They might have good players, even an allstar, but without a super star you just tread water forever until you blow it up.

 

I think it's just the nature of the game of basketball. One player makes all the difference. The most difficult thing in team building in the NBA is to find and get that one player. You do that either by draft (where you need a LOT of luck) or by grabbing one when he leaves his original team. You can do the latter only if you are located in a big attractive market or if you already have one of those guys.

The second most difficult thing is to build around that one player to win quick enough so that he won't lose patience and leave.

 

This team is what we are going to b if we keep wanting to win to get into the playoffs for "playoff experience" if we don't have that one generational talent.
Can't stress this enough, this pacer team been avoiding tanking/rebuilding for years

 

Hey Santa, Malcolm "Mr. President" Brogdon please?

 

yes 29 teams should tank every year...that would do it

 

U should win all cost like the pacers. U see any championship banner?

Winning culture, years of playoff experience. Pacer got it all but look where their anti tank ways/ try their best got them? Yea I thought so.

It's folks like u that loves mediocrity

 

they might have even multiple allstars like pels or minny going
nowhere...
you may even have a superstar and still go nowhere

oth 2014(or it was 13 i forgot) spurs didnt have any allstars and schooled lebron
all stars are fools gold...you need a good basketball team to win it all

 

its not sad these teams are lazy!!!
@D-rock @Joe Rocket @snowconeman22

14 teams passed up on sengun... these mofos are lazy and stuck in the ways of how nba worked 40 years ago....
learn how to scout, how to draft and develop, how to coach, how to create the chemistry!! how to trade....

 

Yeah they only had multiple HOF’ers lol

 

Sabonis!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let’s get him!!!!

 

Turner to Brooklyn would actually be a good get.

 

Anyone you'd give up a rocket player(s) for?

 

You don't know if you have a generational talent among your rookies, until you try to win with them.

 

I can agree with that statement. But rn all I see is a coach playing his veterans to have a meaningless win streak while pushing us out of contention for talent via draft.
